Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Kurt was at a loss for words. “I don't think we should eavesdrop on their conversation...”

Vivian turned to him and said, “Why not? He's talking about Aunt Riley here. We must find out the man Grandpa is trying to matchmake her with. I've gotten to know many people in Jadeborough over the years, so I'm sure I'll know who the candidate is when I hear his name!”

She then grabbed Kurt by the shoulder and dragged him to a window in the study. She even pinned the young man to the wall just in case he refused to abide by her command.

Kurt's brows twitched when she pressed her body against him.

Meanwhile, Jonathan continued speaking over the phone. “Do you have any other problems? If not, let's meet today.”

“What? You want them to meet today?” the person on the other end of the phone exclaimed.

Jonathan expressed his dismay. “Of course. Do you want to wait till tomorrow? What if someone snatches her away? She's quite a steal, mind you. All right, enough talking. We'll meet at noon later. See you at Grandview Restaurant.”

Jonathan then ended the call without hesitation.

Upon hearing that, Vivian could not help but giggle. “Did you see that? Kurt...”

When she lowered her head and was about to tell Kurt how capable Jonathan was, she realized the young man was captivated by her beautiful eyes.

Kurt, whom Vivian had cornered to the window with her chest, could feel her warm breath as they were merely a few inches away from each other.

Vivian instantly blushed.
